Two weeks surgiversary: dancing and pureed foods

Jul 11, 2014

Ok, here we go: weight at begining of preop diet 280, weight at surgery 264, current weight 251. According to my maths, that's alot! yay!

I started my pureed foods on Wednesday and I LOVE PUREED foods!!! I've been getting in at least 80gs of protein, but very little waterm, maybe 32 ozs, I need to really up that. I am so tired today, i can barely keep my eyes open, so I have no idea what that's about. Otherwise, I have been progressing well!

I take my supplements everyday and on a schedule which helps. I have timer to remind me when I can drink before or after a meal, which also helps to remind to drink water or throw down another protein shake. I'm doing at least two protein shakes right now and am counting on the pureed food for the added grams. I can eat about 2-4ozs at a time, about 4 times a day. So it looks like this:

• protein shake
• Vitamins and meds
• 3-4 oz of greek yougurt with b-complex mixed in
• 2-4 oz of pureed food
• water
• snack (popsicle or jello)
• 2-4 oz pureed food
• water
• protein shake
• water
• 2-4 oz pureed food
• 8 oz soy milk
• water
• 2-4 pureed food
• sleep

I also started dancing again! Two nights a week as an aerobic activity, think zumba. I did it wednesday and I was beat! But it felt great and can't wait til next Monday. The only thing I am concerned about are the holes/scars on stomach, any advice on what to put on them so they heal nicely?

Hope you all are doing well!
